HE LOOKS AND SOUNDS Ooooo SOOOO MUCH BETTER THIS TIME OUT!!! GREAT TO SEE!!

Hey eddie WELCOME BACK!

Can someone please tell me what Selector-Switcnin' Eddie is usin' in the neck that he decided to use for the E-solo? What looked to me like mid pos. ? (Sure the hell ain't stock...)
Oh... and what's the octave gismo he's usin' in the dive bombs ? (apparent in Honeybabysweetiedoll & China Town)

I think a Boss OC-1 or 2

Holy fack! His trills and tapping are as fast on here as the 70's So inspirational to see this, nearly teared up. All the shit he has been through all the way to his recent hand surgery! Man, just amazing

That just erased what I saw in the 2007 tour. Part where he's taking a seat is badass!

HOLLLLYYYYYY....

Wow, THE MAN is back. This is so awesome to see!

BOSS OC-3 Super Octave

It seems like Ed watched Live without a net recently and said

GODDAMNIT THAT WAS ONE BADASS SOLO, instantly relearns it all.

He can move pretty well for a dude with two fake hips! I am surprised he still does his "jump" thing.
